When we finally started our adventure
In this exclusive behind-the-scenes look at BYD's megafactory in Shenzhen, travel vloggers Ben and Reanne of On Tour With Dridgers become the first influencers ever granted access inside. The factory, sprawling at 4.1 million square feet, is a futuristic marvel where AI-powered robots handle about 80-90% of the work—producing an electric vehicle every 58 seconds. <br><br>From the moment they don their blue vests and pass through facial recognition gates, the scale is staggering. The assembly line is a continuous, moving conveyor belt of car shells, with robots delivering parts to human workers who handle only the fiddliest tasks. In the welding section, 1,700 robots work in near-total darkness under red light (to protect human eyes), while humans in bulky suits handle the tricky corners. <br><br>One of the most jaw-dropping moments comes when the travelers watch a robot install both front and rear windshields simultaneously—smooth, precise, and done in seconds. They also get a tour of the luxury Yangwang U7, a $50,000 electric sedan with tray tables, massage seats, a fridge, and even vanity mirrors. <br><br>Local reporter Zach, who helped arrange this near-impossible tour, explains that while Chinese car factories are generally open, BYD's factory is notoriously secretive—making this tour a true world exclusive. The video offers a rare, unfiltered glimpse into the production line that has made BYD the world's largest EV manufacturer, and starkly illustrates why Tesla should be paying close attention.
In an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour, travel vloggers Ben and Reanne (On Tour With Dridgers) become the first influencers to enter China's BYD megafactory in Shenzhen. They witness a staggering operation where AI-powered robots build an EV every 58 seconds, 90% automated. From the 'assembly line' that never stops to a welding section with 1,700 robots working in eerie red light, the scale is jaw-dropping. They sit inside the luxury Yangwang U7—complete with tray tables and a fridge—and discover that BYD even makes its own forklifts. It's a mind-blowing glimpse into why BYD is the world's top EV producer, and a clear signal to competitors like Tesla: the future is already here.
